A survey has been published which shows that British people don’t like their neighbors very much. 80% of the people who took part in the survey feel that their neighbours h 51 pay attention to others’ feelings. 25% don’t talk to the people who live next door and 10% don’t even know their names.

The other main problems are disagreements (不和) about car parking spaces, and old people complaining about the young. Some disagreements last a l 55 time.

参考答案：

2．B
【详解】句意：我们都喜欢音乐，因为它令人放松。
考查形容词词义辨析。boring无聊的；relaxing令人放松的；difficult困难的；busy忙碌的。根据“We all like music because it’s ...”可知，喜欢音乐应是因为它让人放松。故选B。
3．C
【详解】句意：——你喜欢水果吗，露西？——是的。我喜欢苹果和梨子。

考查情态动词。have to“不得不，必须”，是情态动词，后接动词原形，故选B。
6．C
【详解】句意：服装店卖漂亮的裙子给女孩。
考查动词时态。sell卖，动词原形；sale售卖，名词；sells卖，动词单三；sales销售额，名词。分析句子可知，句中缺少谓语动词，句子用一般现在时，主语是“The clothes store”，谓语动词用单三。故选C。
7．B
【详解】句意：我觉得放学后我们一起踢足球很有趣。
考查非谓语动词。分析句子可知，此处是结构It is adj. for sb. to do sth.“做某事对某人来说是……的”，it作形式主语，真正的主语是动词不定式。故选B。
8．A
【详解】句意：我非常喜欢我的美术老师杨先生，因为他很友好。
考查连词辨析。because因为；or或者；but但是；so因此。根据“I like my art teacher Mr. Yang very much, … he is very friendly”可知，空格后“他非常友好”是喜欢他的原因，用because引导原因状语从句，故选A。
9．A
【详解】句意：——你喜欢什么运动？——我喜欢打网球和跑步。

10．B
【详解】句意：我喜欢这个。我可以试下它吗？
考查动词短语辨析。look it看它；try it on试下它；see it看到它；try on it错误结构。look是不及物动词，要与介词at一起搭配才能接宾语，排除A选项。try on是动副短语，代词要放在中间，排除D选项。根据“I like this one”可知，喜欢所以想试穿，所以B符合语境，故选B。
11．C
【详解】句意：吉米告诉了我他的电话号码，但我现在记不起来了。
考查动词时态。根据“I can’t remember it now.”可知吉姆是过去告诉“我”电话号码的，所以应用一般过去时，故选C。

【详解】句意：——你弟弟喜欢沙拉吗？——是的，他喜欢。
考查一般疑问句及其回答。句子是一般现在时，主语“your brother”是第三人称单数形式，动词是实义动词，疑问句的助动词应用does，肯定回答也应用does。故选D。
13．B
【详解】句意：玛丽想知道鲍勃住在哪里。
考查宾语从句。宾语从句是陈述语序，所以排除选项C，宾语从句的构成是：引导词+主语+谓语+其它，此处引导词是where。故选B。
14．A
【详解】试题分析：句意:这些是我的书，他们是新的。Here are 这里是…；Here is 是单数形式；This is 这是…。根据句意和空后的my books可知，这里应该用复数形式。故选A。
考点：考查Here is 的复数形式。
15．C
【详解】句意：这是一个英国的女孩。这个女孩的妈妈今天穿着一件红色的大衣。
考查冠词用法。a/an是不定冠词，泛指一个。a用于辅音音素开头的单词前，an用于元音音素开头的单词前；the是定冠词，表示特指。第一空表泛指，English是以元音音素开头发音，可知用an；第二空特指前面提到的这个女孩，因此用定冠词the；第三空泛指一件大衣，red是以辅音音素开头发音，可知用a。故填C。
16．B 17．C 18．E 19．A 20．A 21．C 22．B 23．D

25．was walking
【详解】句意：昨晚Ben和他的爱犬散步时，一辆摩托车把他撞倒了。根据“A motorcycle knocked Ben down when he...with his pet dog last night.”可知，此处是when引导的时间状语从句，表示主句动作发生的时候，从句动作同时也在进行，且主句时态knocked为一般过去时，所以从句时态用过去进行时，其结构为was/were+动词的现在分词。主语是he，be动词用was，walk的现在分词是walking。故填was walking。
26．don’t do
【详解】句意：比利和他哥哥不是每天晚上都做他们的项目。根据提示词可知该句为否定句；再根据“every evening”可知句子时态用一般现在时；主语是Billy and his brother，复数，谓语动词do为实义动词，所以否定句需要加否定助动词don’t，后接动词原形do。故填don’t do。
27．goes
【详解】句意：Susan经常和她的朋友去看电影。分析语境，时态用一般现在时，主语Susan是第三人称单数，所以谓语动词go也要用第三人称单数形式，故填goes。

32． Did catch
【详解】句意：摩托车在交通事故中着火了。根据“caught”可知用一般过去时，一般疑问句中，含有实义动同的一般疑问句在主语前加did，实义动词变为原形catch，故填Did；catch。
33． find any
【详解】句意：去年，英国动物保护协会的一名官员在街上发现了许多无家可归的小狗。根据“found”，可知句子时态是一般过去时，谓语动词是实义动词，变否定句时用didn’t+动词原形，在否定句中要把a lot of改为any。故填find；any。
34． Why does
【详解】句意：彼得想成为一名消防员，因为他想拯救人们的生命。根据划线部分是原因状语从句可知，特殊疑问词应该用why，放于句首首字母大写。特殊疑问句是由特殊疑问词+一般疑问句组成。本句是一般现在时，主语是第三人称单数，所以助动词应该用does。故填Why：does。
35． Why did
【详解】句意：警察阻止了交通，为了让消防车快点来。
题干划线部分是to+动词原形，表示目的，意为“为了”。询问目的或原因可用Why-疑问句。题干为一般过去时，所以需要借助助动词did来帮助构成疑问句。故填Why，did。
